Jessa Duggar on Joy-Anna’s Wedding: It’s Finally Her Turn!

Posted on June 12, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Last month,  Joy-Anna Duggar married Austin Forsyth in a surprisingly secretive ceremony. Usually, the Duggars aren’t quite so clandestine about their nuptials. In fact, news of past Duggar weddings was pretty much shouted from every rooftop in Arkansas. This time around, the Duggars even posted a fake wedding registry for Joy-Anna online in an effort to throw fans off the trail. So why was Joy-Anna and Austin’s wedding shrouded in such secrecy? Why, because a new season of Counting On premieres tonight, of course! Yes, now more than ever, the Duggars are reliant on weddings and pregnancies to bring viewers back to their reality show, which has seen its ratings decline steadily over the past two seasons. Joy-Anna and Austin shared certain details on social media, but fans will be forced to tune into tonight’s premiere in order to get the full run-down. And naturally, the rest of the family is in full-blown promo mode at the moment. Earlier today, People magazine published a transcript of a scene from tonight’s episode in which Jessa Duggar gushes about her soon-to-be-married younger sister and. “Being here in the bridal suite while all the girls are getting ready, definitely takes me back to my wedding day,” Jessa says in the episode. “It makes me reminisce about all the sweet memories just hours before my own wedding. I know the excitement that Joy is experiencing right now; the anticipation. It’s a big, big day.” Jessa goes on to describe Joy-Anna’s mindset in the moments before saying “I do”: “Joy is just staying relaxed, she’s not getting worked up,” she says. “She’s just focusing on one thing at a time and getting ready … before we know it, the wedding will be here.” And Jessa’s not the only one feeling nostalgic. It was just a few months ago that Jinger Duggar married Jeremy Vuolo , but Jinge is already fondly reflecting on those days like she’s the old lady from Titanic or something: “It really does seem like it was just yesterday that Jeremy and I were walking down the aisle and about to get married,” she says. “I just can’t believe it’s Joy’s time to kiss. I still remember her as the little girl that I would help out with things … it’s crazy that it’s her wedding day, but we’re so excited for her.” “Joy’s time to kiss” is kind of a creepy description, but our creepiness tolerance is pretty high when it comes to the Duggars, so we’ll let that one slide. We will say that someone should shoot Jessa and Jinger an email reminding them that Jana Duggar exists. It can’t be easy to hear your younger sisters gush about how it’s finally time for your even younger sister to start her life while you’re still cooped up at the compound helping to raise your small army of siblings. But hey, this is the life she’s chosen. Yes, we just quoted The Godfather in reference to Jana Duggar. Jana is gangsta and we refuse to back down from that stance. Watch Counting On online in order to get caught up in time for tonight’s premiere. View Slideshow: Joy-Anna Duggar Wedding Photos Released: Check Out Mrs. Forsyth’s Big Day!

Hope Hicks: Donald Trump’s Girlfriend? The Internet Thinks So

Posted on June 12, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Though it’s easy to forget among the numerous scandals and allegations of treason surrounding the Trump administration, Donald Trump’s Presidency has also been filled with suggestions that he and his wife clearly aren’t getting along . Well, it looks like the internet has decided that he has a girlfriend, and they even think that they’ve figured out who. So, when you can’t keep track of who some star is dating or you totally know but you just can’t remember the name, you just pick up your phone or bring up Google and say: “Charlie Sheen girlfriend.” And that’s the way to do it, by the way. Please don’t make search engine algorithms try to make sense of “Who is that actor Charlie Sheen dating again? I forget” It is 2017 and people shouldn’t be typing sentences into Google unless they’re looking to match song lyrics or root out plagiarism. ( His girlfriend is Julia Stambler by the way, but that’s neither here no there) Well, Hope Hicks is Donald Trump’s 28-year-old White House Director of Strategic Communications, and as reported by Inquisitr, people Googling information about her seem to regard her as Donald Trump’s girlfriend . Not everyone, but enough that Google’s infamous suggested searches — the autofill function — seems eager to suggest it. A lot of people don’t know much about Hope. Our first reaction to Hope Hicks’ name was to wonder what it’s like to have a name like “Hope” and work in an administration that embodies despair. But on second thought, we realized that her name makes sense for the Trump White House, given Trump’s base demographics. This is right up there with an NSA whistleblower named “Reality Winner.” Like, if someone were just sitting down and writing all of this for a TV show, they’d probably need to go back and make the names more realistic. But, though Google Trends says that there wasn’t really an uptick in searches for Hope Hicks until a couple of months ago, she’s been with the administration since the beginning. In fact, she was at the notably undercrowded inauguration, seen alongside Kellyanne Conway — both dressed as very different flavors of supervillains. If Kellyanne dressed as a supervillain who sends ransom notes in a jack-in-the-box, Hope dressed as a supervillain who turns her enemies to stone. The thing is that we can’t find any real indications that Hope Hicks is anything more than Trump’s employee. But we think that one factor in making people suggest this is that her looks are … above average. Well above average — she was a model for Ralph Lauren. She does do her makeup like she’s 40, but that’s not at all uncommon for affluent conservative women. Sometimes even when they’re still teenagers. And that’s totally her right; she can wear makeup however she likes. But she still looks like somebody’s 28-year-old stepmom. Trump is notoriously picky, but when viewed alongside racist elf Jeff Sessions and Steve Bannon, who looks like every male NPC in The Witcher , it’s easy to see how she might look appealing to someone like Trump. Add in the apparent marital tension going on in the Trump family, hundreds of millions of people keeping up with news of the administration, and time … and you’re going to see some people speculate. By reputation, Trump is as womanizing as he is orange. We don’t just mean the infamous “grab ’em by the p—y” tape or the fact that he’s had three wives … but those are major factors. Some Twitter users have noted that Hope Hicks’ office is fairly close to his, and suggested that an improper relationship would explain that. Even if it turned out that Hope Hicks is genuinely Trump’s girlfriend, or mistress, or whatever, we’re not going to kid ourselves and imagine that the base that elected him will turn on him for it. Even though they are almost all the same people who acted scandalized by the Monica Lewinsky scandal back in the ’90s. This administration has a massive political advantage, in that the core of Trump’s voters don’t seem to mind anything that he says or does, and it’s hard to think of that changing easily or soon. As far as we know, no one actually has any evidence that Hope and Trump are seeing each other. Ugh, and we do not want to think about what form that “evidence” would take. If that really is what’s going on … we guess we hope she’s into watersports , huh? Sorry; we made it worse.

Scheana Marie vs. Rest of Vanderpump Rules Cast: Ongoing Feud Alert!

Posted on June 9, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

If you watch Vanderpump Rules online , you know that the show’s past season wasn’t particularly kind to SUR hostess/aspiring pop singer/fake eyelash enthusiast Scheana Marie. In addition to chronicling her  divorce from Mike Shay , VPR Season 5 featured a storyline about Scheana being booted out of the chick clique that’s since dubbed itself the Witches of WeHo. The politics of the group are complex, and providing a full explanation would take about as much time as giving you a complete history of the Soviet Union … and it would feature just as many nefarious characters. Suffice it to say, Stassi Schroeder was in charge, then she fell from power, then she maneuvered her way back into the group, and while she allows Katie Maloney to serve in a sort of figurehead capacity, Stassi is totally back in charge these days. That’s bad news for Scheana, who has little choice but to accept the current power structure and serve up the occasional pinot grigio. The cast is currently filming Season 6, and sources say Scheana is more on the outs than ever before, to the point that she has yet to film with the other ladies. Judging from their Instagram pics, the rest of the cast is getting along just fine … … They’ve just replaced Scheana with Jax Taylor’s girlfriend, Brittany Cartwright . Stassi’s squad posted the pic above to celebrate National Best Friend Day, which is the latest dumb thing the Internet expects you to care about. Not to be outdone, Scheana posted her own Besties Day pic. Hers, of course, featured her BFFs Ariana Madix and Lala Kent. So it seems she’s not completely without allies. The only problem is that Lala quit the show last year, and Ariana’s storylines mostly center around her relationship with Tom Sandoval. (Despite her insistence that she has no interest in marriage, we’re guessing Ariana and Tom will be the next Vanderpump couple to get hitched.) These days, Scheana is dating Robert Valletta , but there’s no word on whether or not he’ll appear on the series. Stassi, meanwhile, is back together with boyfriend Patrick Meagher, who will be joining the cast on a part-time basis this season. Sounds like Ms. Schroeder is only becoming more and more powerful while her foes stagnate. It’ll take a lot of white wine to get her fall off her throne now.

Khloe Kardashian: Accused by Designer of Stealing Designs, Legal Bullying

Posted on June 9, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Khloe Kardashian’s legal team sent a cease and desist letter to a small, independent designer, instructing her to stop accusing Khloe of stealing her work. It looks like that’s blown up in Khloe’s face. Majorly. If there’s one thing that truly unites the Kardashian family, it’s a fondness for cultural appropriation. From cornrows to huge lips to big butt culture to … everything, it seems that the Kardashians scarcely have to see an element of black culture before they decide to make it their own. But it seems that the appropriation isn’t limited to Kylie Jenner’s ever-changing body ,  Designer Destiney Bleu, after repeatedly calling out Khloe and accusing her of ripping off her designs. She did this so much that Khloe’s legal team sent a nasty cease-and-desist order. Of course, most small-time designers would be quaking in their boots when threatened with a rich person’s lawsuit. Even if you’re in the right, just letting a lawsuit drag out in court can completely exhaust someone’s finances. You can win the case but have your life ruined. Destiney has majorly clapped back, and no matter which of them you believe about the propietary issues, these words are absolutely worth reading. We wonder if Khloe is regretting any of that now? Though the response letter comes from Destiney’s legal representative, it seems pretty clear that Destiney’s words are involved. Because the letter is decidedly  not limited to legal jargon. “It is not illegal for Khloe to copy Destiney’s designs — it is just tacky, disrespectful, and in bad taste,” says Destiney’s scathing response letter , as reported by TooFab . “There is also something deeply uncomfortable about someone with Khloe’s wealth and power appropriating designs and fashion directly from a black woman with a small business without crediting her, making cheap knockoffs, and then attempting to threaten her into silence.” Hold on a moment, we need to print out that line and frame it and hang it on our wall. But the letter continues. “You should be ashamed.” It’s clear that we’re all meant to know exactly what Khloe’s lawyers are demanding from Destiney. “You demand that Destiney ‘cease and desist’ her ‘false statements,’ ‘make an appropriate corrective statement,’ and ‘that [Destiney’s] trolls stop attacking [Khloe Kardashian’s] social media channels.'” How exactly is Destiney expected to stop other people from independently tweeting at Khloe? With magic? Sorry, Khloe’s legal team, but even if you  happen to think that all black people look alike, Destiney isn’t Azealia Banks . “However, your attempt to censor Destiney with these meritless threats will have the opposite of its intended effect. Destiney will not surrender to your bullying.” That lawyer’s absolutely right about the opposite effect business, because if Khloe had never tried to shut down Destiney’s statements, a lot of people might never have heard about this. And, by the way, Destiney’s also happy to provide evidence of correspondences she had, which she says prove that Khloe had access to Destiney’s samples … before going on to copy them. How sad must it be to be rich and famous but still feel the need to pluck ideas from others and claim them as your own? We don’t know how this legal drama will unfold, but we’re sure glad that Destiney’s words are being heard. Maybe it’ll be a boost to her business. View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian Gym Selfies

Courtney Stodden Gets Sexy, Political in Makeup-Free Selfie!

Posted on June 9, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Courtney Stodden’s not exactly shy about her looks or her politics. And now she’s stunning followers with a makeup-free photo … and some very pleasant glimpses at her spectacular body. And her caption has something of a political twist. So, remember that Baywatch movie? Everybody watched the Baywatch trailer , at least, for obvious thirst reasons. Well, thirst alone wasn’t enough to keep the film from flopping at the box office. Courtney’s smoldering hot red swimsuit photo isn’t just visually reminiscent of Baywatch — she mentions the series by name. Her caption, “Make Baywatch Great Again,” is an obvious nod both to the film’s unenthusiastic reception and to the campaign slogan of a certain orange politician. Some people might be surprised to see a political reference in Courtney’s caption, but they shouldn’t be. Remember, she was a supporter of Bernie Sanders and then Hillary Clinton in 2016. And Courtney Stodden got political again just recently. Trump’s campaign slogan is as easy to parody as it is perplexing — since, you know, America was already pretty great. In fact, you tended to kind of get the impression that “great” was just a euphemism for “white.” But we can be sure that Courtney truly means great. And sexy. And fun. And kind. That’s kind of her brand. What’s more is that posing without makeup is almost inherently political. Women are constantly policed for their appearances. Going without makeup can get women asked if they’re “sick” or “tired” by clueless men who are used to seeing their faces look different. And who have no idea how much work so many women put into their looks, every single day. It’s worth noting that society tends to find men plenty attractive without any makeup, yet has high standard’s for a woman’s appearance — that she should have a “natural look” but obviously hide any perceived imperfections. In other words, women are expected to wear just enough makeup to be pleasing to the eye, but to not have fun with it. Ultimately, personal makeup choices should always be personal — to benefit no one but the makeup wearer themselves. But photos like this of Courtney’s send a powerful message that going without makeup can be wildly sexy. Obviously. But our biggest takeaway from all of this was just that we would 100% be down to watch a Courtney Stodden Baywatch movie. There are plenty of sexy actors and actresses who can go play around in the ocean, but it’s pretty tough to find someone as endearing as Courtney. What a doll.

Meet The Four Black Finalists Competing To Become PETA’s Sexiest Vegan

Posted on June 5, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Help PETA Choose The Sexiest Vegan Next Door If you need another reason to go meat free, you may want to consider it now so you can have a chance in this contest next year! PETA is preparing to crown this year’s Sexiest Vegan Next Door—and four African-American vegans are all vying for the title. They beat out hundreds of other entrants from across the nation to advance to the final round of 10 male and 10 female contestants. Visitors to PETA.org can now help PETA select the two lucky winners—one man and one woman—who will each receive a free vacation for two to Maui, Hawaii, courtesy of Humane Travel. Here’s the details of the four African-American candidates (there are also several Latino and Asian candidates as well!). PETA Police officer Michael Baysmore of Baltimore (left) went vegan five years ago to improve his health and his physique—and he says that, since then, he’s had more energy, a more robust immune system, and a quicker recovery time after each workout. PETA Natasha James owns and operates Rawcells, a Los Angeles delivery tricycle full of healthy, organic vegan treats such as “twinkies,” “snickers,” and doughnuts. Her goal is to inspire nonvegan Los Angelenos to try plant-based food options beyond salads—and she’s scoring big among diners looking for something novel and sweet. Remote train conductor Arnisha Keaton (middle-right) is based in Atlanta and travels a lot for her work as a chemist in the Army Reserve—and she loves sharing her passion for helping animals with everyone she meets. PETA Makeup artist Niyah Byrd (right) is based in Knoxville, Tennessee, and uses only cruelty-free products in her makeup work and, in her work as a model, has proudly turned down offers from companies that test on animals. “Whether you’re a police officer, a food bike–riding entrepreneur, a member of the Army Reserve, or a makeup artist, vibrant plant-based meals can give you the energy that you need in order to keep up with the action,” says PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman. “Each one of the finalists in PETA’s contest is a testament to how sexy vegans are—inside and out.” Voting for the finalists to help PETA determine whom it should select as the winners ends at 12 noon EDT on June 21. PETA will select the winners based on several factors, including vote count. See the full contest details here. Winners will be notified and announced on June 28.

50 Cent PUNCHES Female Fan During Concert!!!

Posted on April 10, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It's been years since 50 Cent's music career garnered any real attention, but the rapper has continued to make headlines with his frequent batsh-t behavior. Some of 50's shenanigans are funny, such as his random feud with Taraji P. Henson or the time that he got all pissed that his penis was shown on TV . Others are not so amusing, such as the time 50 threatened to murder his son on Instagram . His latest dust-up most certainly falls into the latter category. 50 was performing with The Lox in Baltimore over the weekend when an overexcited female fan attempted to pull him off the stage. As you can see in the video below, Fif responded to the perceived threat by throwing a punch at the woman. Witnesses say he hit her in the chest, but fortunately, she didn't appear to suffer any serious injuries. Amazingly, 50 and the fan buried the hatchet almost immediately, and she later joined him onstage for some good-natured twerking. We're pretty sure there's a lesson top be learned here: As our divisive political climate threatens to tear this nation apart, perhaps we should all learn to twerk our differences away. Of course, 50 had to commit an act of assault against a woman before the conciliatory twerking could take place, so perhaps all there is to learn from this is that Fif is certifiable. Here's hoping that going forward, his behavior will fall more into the “Oh, that Fiddy. Smh.” category and less the “Good God, this man needs to be medicated.”

22 Things You Didn’t Know About Dancing with the Stars

Posted on April 10, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes on Dancing with the Stars? From the hook-ups and the makeup to the pro who was nearly a judge, here are 22 things you didn't know about the popular reality competition show! 1. It’s Based on the British Series, Strictly Come Dancing Dancing with the Stars is based on the British Series, Strictly Come Dancing, which premiered in 2004. Len Goodman has been the head judge on both series. 2. Mark Ballas Dated Two of His Partners Mark Ballas dated dancing partner Sabrina Bryan during the show in 2007. Two years later, he was rumored to be dating partner Shawn Johnson. 3. The Money is Worth It The celebrity contestants get a pretty fabulous paycheck for their time on Dancing with the Stars, even if they don’t make it past the first elimination. Several have reported a base salary of $125,000, and that number goes up for the contestants who make it further in the competition. 4. The Show Really Wants Bill Clinton to Compete How amazing would this be? Bill Clinton has been asked repeatedly to be on Dancing with the Stars, but he hasn’t said yes. Yet. 5. Kym Johnson and Robert Herjavec These two weren’t secretive about their budding romance when they were partners on the show, and that romance lasted. The two eventually got married, and they’re cuter than ever. 6. Last Minute Costumes You might imagine it takes a lot of time to make those fancy costumes, but in reality, the constestants don’t get to wear them until dress rehearsal, and even then, they may not be totally complete. The final look usually isn’t ready until just before the show begins! View Slideshow

Khloe Kardashian: Under Fire for Controversial Vagina Treatments?!

Posted on March 22, 2017 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Sometimes it seems like Khloe Kardashian just can’t catch a break. Sure, she’s got more money than she knows what to do with, she has a big, loving family, she has her pick of basically any professional athlete she could possibly want. But with all of those pros, there are a good few cons: her marriage to Lamar Odom failed , she had to watch him nearly die, and they were never able to have children together, despite trying. And on top of all that, Khloe may be ruining her vagina. Earlier this month, Khloe took to her app to share a list of items and activities she uses to keep things in tip-top shape down there. There were several hygiene products on the list — a special vagina soap, wipes for on-the-go cleaning, lotions and creams. She also suggested her followers use some little Ben Wa balls, which, as she described, is “like Pilates for your cha-cha!”, and some fancy $200 device to check out the progress of her Kegel exercises. But she also advertised a “vajacial” — a sort of facial for your nether regions. And that’s where she goes wrong. Khloe gets her vajacials from some wax bar in L.A., and essentially she pays someone $75 for “exfoliation, toning, and a ‘face’ mask.” The treatment is also meant to remove any ingrown hairs and clear up pores. But as Dr. Amir Marashi, a gynecologist known in some circles as the Vagina Whisperer, tells Radar Online, the procedure definitely isn’t recommended . He does admit that “I like the fact that all celebrities are talking about vagina because we’ve been ignoring vaginas for a long time.” “I’m really happy celebs are talking — it makes it more comfortable for other people to start talking about it.” But still, he says “I prefer people to get their health care tips from doctors or health care professionals.” He also points out that since Khloe is so famous, someone giving her vagina a facial would likely be way more careful than they would with anyone else. “Patients come to me after this treatment,” he says. “It can very easily be harmed.” The issue, Dr. Marashi explains, is that when getting this vajacial nonsense, the salon worker will often extend the treatment to the inside, into the actual vagina. And you don’t want someone who isn’t a medical professional digging around in there with tools. So hey, how crazy is it that a doctor had to take the time to make a statement about how dumb a Kardashian is ? What a world. And you know we don’t mean that in a good way.

Who Looked More Bangin’ At The 2017 Oscars?

Was Taraji P. Henson Or Janelle Monae Best Dressed At The 2017 Oscars Taraji P. Henson has been slaying red carpets all year, but everything about her 2017 Oscars look is breathtaking — from her makeup to that slit giving us a great glimpse of her gams. The deep blue velvet is amazing right? We loved this look, but there was so much beauty on the Oscars red carpet. We’d be especially wrong not to mention the beauty that is Janelle Monae. All the sparkle and shine of gold and silver intertwined into black tulle made her ball gown one truly worth checking out on the Oscars red carpet. And of course we have to talk about the pixie cut Janelle rocked with a golden headpiece. Just beautiful right? If you had to choose between these ladies, who would you say looked most bangin? Have a look at more of the talent from the red carpet below but don’t forget to weigh in in the comments section! SplashNews/WENN
